The Body & Dis Fig

The Body & Dis Fig

A crossover between American duo The Body, who have been tinkering with noise and metal since 1999, and Berlin-based DJ, producer, and vocalist Felicia Chen (AKA Dis Fig) was bound to make the earth shake. Sure enough, ‘Orchards of a Futile Heaven’, the collaboration’s first outing, sent seismic ripples reverberating throughout the heavy music scene. Months after it was released, there is still much left to discover in The Body & Dis Fig’s explosively weighty LP. The Body’s previous flirtations with techno, minimal wave, and industrial meet full steam ahead Dis Fig’s seasoned club expertise in a collaborative project that is also, lest we forget, profoundly emotional.

Venue: TivoliVredenburg
